USING THE PERCOLATOR
1. Before using for the first time, thoroughly wash
all parts of the percolator. (See the Cleaning
and Maintenance Instructions section of this
booklet.)
2. Remove cover, basket, lid and pump tube with
spring. Using the measurement markings
(located inside the body) fill the percolator
with the desired amount of water. For best
results be sure to use cold water when filling
the percolator.
3. Run cold water over the coffee basket. Place
basket on top of pump tube. Add desired
amount of coffee according to level markings
on basket. To help keep small coffee grounds
from sifting through the holes in the basket, be
certain to use a grind designed for percolator
coffee, or use a coarse grind. Finer grinds may
sift through the holes.
4. Place basket and pump tube assembly into
percolator so bottom of tube fits into well.
Place basket cover on top of basket and push
cover onto top of percolator.
5. Plug base into standard household 120 volt
AC wall outlet. Brewing begins within seconds,
and continues at a rate of approximately one
cup per minute.
The following chart serves as a guide for
preparing various brew strengths. Amounts
can be varied to suit personal taste and
particular coffees.
*1 coffee measure = 1 level tablespoon
6. Once brewing cycle is complete, indicator
light will illuminate to signal your coffee is
ready.
Warning: Be certain the percolating process has
stopped completely before removing cover.
7. Once brewing has been completed, remove
the cover carefully and using a mitt or
potholder, remove the basket and pump tube.
Caution: do not touch the stainless steel
parts of the percolator, as they will be hot.
Replace cover so it snaps into place. You
are now ready to enjoy a flavorful cup of
coffee.
8. Remove plug from percolator for easy serving.
Replace plug to keep coffee hot.
